Grilled Corn With Chiles Food

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CHILI-LIME BUTTER AND COTIJA CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Grill the corn in their husks until the husks start to blacken, about 3 minutes per side.
• Mix together the butter, chili powder, cayenne pepper, lime juice and some salt and black pepper in a bowl until incorporated.
• Peel back the corn husks, leaving on to use as handles while eating. Rub the chili-lime butter all over the corn. Garnish with the cotija cheese.

GRILLED CORN SALAD WITH LIME, RED CHILI AND COTIJA

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Grill corn until charred on all sides, 10 or so minutes. Take off the grill and remove the kernels with a sharp knife. While you are cutting the corn, put a cast iron skillet on the grill to heat.
• Add the corn and the remaining ingredients to the hot pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until creamy and heated through. Serve with the steak.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILES

Steps:

• Preheat the grill. Pull down the corn husks, but don't remove them. Extract the silk and rewrap the husks around the corn. Soak the ears in cold water for 30 minutes.
• In a blender or food processor, combine the remaining ingredients. Pulse intermittently to make a paste.
• Remove the corn from the water, pull back the husks and drain thoroughly. Spread the paste over the kernels. Rewrap the husks, then arrange the corn on the hot grill. Cook, turning often, for about 15 minutes, or until the husks are lightly charred. Serve in the husks.
• Optional serving style: After removing corn from water, drain, rewrap in husks and grill. When done, remove from grill, cut corn into 1inch rings and toss with the chile paste. Serve in a bowl.

GRILLED CORN WITH ANCHO CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wrap the head of garlic with aluminum foil and roast for 40 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Squeeze the cloves of garlic from their papery skins into a small glass bowl. Add the butter and ancho powder, mixing well to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Place a piece of plastic wrap on a work surface, spoon the butter into the middle and roll into a cylinder. Refrigerate until set, at least 30 minutes. (The butter can be made ahead and will keep for up to a week.)
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat.
• Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until browned in spots and the kernels are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Brush with the ancho chile butter and serve.

CORN ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Heat the garlic and butter in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes to infuse the butter with the flavor of garlic. Do not let the butter simmer. Stir together the sugar, salt, black pepper, and cumin in a small dish. Stir into the butter mixture along with the lime juice and hot sauce until evenly blended. Brush the ears of corn generously with the garlic butter; reserve remaining butter.
• Cook the corn on the preheated grill, rotating occasionally until the corn is hot and tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush the corn with the remaining butter as the corn cooks.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILI LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the butter in a small bowl, add the chili powder, lime peel, lime juice, jalapeño and salt and mix well.
• Shape the butter into any form you like, cover and place in the refrigerator until shortly before ready to serve, at which time allow butter to soften.
• Heat grill to medium-high.
• Place corn (in husk) on the grill, rotating the corn so you cook on all sides, for approximately 15 minutes total.
• Remove from grill and cool slightly (so you are able to peel the husk) and peel. Place corn back on grill over the same flame for about 4 minutes, once again rotating the corn for even grill marks.
• Serve the corn immediately with the chili lime butter.
• Cooking option: Place the corn (in the husk) on a plate and microwave for 5 minutes (21/2 minutes per side); when ready to grill, remove the husks and grill over a medium-high flame for about 2 minutes per side.

GRILLED PORTOBELLOS WITH CHILE SAUCE, SOUR CREAM AND CORN NUTS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit/240 degrees Celsius. Add the bell pepper, tomato and yellow onion to a medium parchment-lined rimmed baking tray, and toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and a small pinch of salt.
• Arrange the peppers and tomatoes skin side up on the parchment, and roast for 22 minutes, or until softened in places. Set aside, and when cool enough to handle, peel and discard the pepper and tomato skins.
• As the vegetables cook, add the dried chiles to a medium heatproof bowl and pour over enough boiling water to fully submerge. Weigh down the chiles with a small saucer and let sit for 20 minutes to rehydrate.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, a tablespoon of lime juice and a tiny pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside.
• Place a well-greased grill pan over high heat and ventilate your kitchen well. In a large bowl, gently toss together the mushrooms, red onion, 3 1/2 tablespoons oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt.
• Once your grill is hot enough, add half the mushrooms, cap side down, and half the onions. Grill the mushrooms for 5 minutes, then flip them over and grill for another 3 minutes, or until nicely charred and cooked through. Grill the onions for 4 to 5 minutes, flipping as necessary, until charred and softened (don't worry if the layers separate further). Transfer to a large bowl. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and onions. When ready, toss the grilled vegetables with half of the cumin seeds, the remaining tablespoon of lime juice and 1 tablespoon of oil.
• Once the chiles have soaked, remove them, discarding the water. Roughly chop the chiles, then add to a blender along with the roasted vegetables, garlic, maple syrup, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon/100 milliliters of fresh water, the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Blitz until completely smooth and silky. If the mushrooms aren't finished cooking, transfer the sauce to a small saucepan over medium heat, and gently warm through, stirring occasionally.
• Pour the warm chile sauce onto a large platter with a lip, swirling to cover the surface of the plate. Use a spoon to drizzle over the sour cream, then top with the mushrooms, onions and any remaining juices. Sprinkle over the remaining cumin seeds, half the corn nuts and all the oregano, serving the remaining corn nuts alongside.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CHILI LIME MAYO

Steps:

• Open husks, but leave attached, and remove silks from corn; replace husks and soak corn in cold water 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat indoor or outdoor grill over medium heat.
• Remove corn from water and cook, turning occasionally, 15 minutes until tender; place in warm oven until ready to serve.
• While corn is cooking combine mayonnaise, chili powder, and Parmesan in a small bowl; thin to desired consistency with fresh lime juice.
• To serve, remove husks and spread corn with chili lime mayo.

GRILLED CORN WITH SPICY CHILI BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt butter in small pan over medium heat. When melted, add garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne and cook about 1 minute. Set aside.
• Prepare the corn by removing all but the innermost layer of the husk. The kernels should be covered but visible through the layer. Use scissors to snip off the silk ends.
• Grill the corn over medium-hot fire, turning corn every 2 minutes until the dark outlines of the kernels show through the husk and the husk is charred and beginning to peel away from the kernels, about 8-10 minutes.
• Transfer the corn to a platter. Remove and discard charred husk and silk. Using brush, brush each ear with butter mixture.
